The Word-Light

Logos—the Word with God,
Who is God,
And who is Light–Word-Light.

He walks with us,
Guiding us with His words and light on a winding way.
We see others and attribute words to them.

Cherished spouse, loved child, precious friend.
But if we look away from the light, we misname,
Horrid adversary.

And we misname ourselves: Failure, Stupid, Nothing.
Word-Light says, “Seek and see Me,
To see and name rightly.”

Word-Light heals the wounded soul.
He gives us a word for ourselves–to name us:
Imago Dei—the picture of God–sacred us–all of us.
